CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

180 Black Smoke

Luo Xiang stopped in front of the mansion after looking for BaiYing and couldn’t find him anywhere. He was starting to get worried, but Princess Wu Lan said, the location of the place was very safe, almost no one had managed to break through the entrance. Even they had forgotten how they got there in the first place.

“Bei, did Master Shin also go with Ying Ying?” he asked, Bei Yau, nodded his head.

“That’s right Your Majesty, I saw Princess a Ya and young master with Master Shin Ya going towards the waterfall, it is not far behind the mansion, shall we go there, Your Majesty?”

Luo Xiang nodded.

“Yeah, we better take the kid home, somehow even though they say this place is safe, I still have a bad feeling, come on.”

The Crown Prince was just about to take a step when they heard a rather loud voice from inside the mansion belonging to the Village Elder.

“Please help this servant, my Princess, please help me, those people are merciless, my son may be in grave danger right now.”

A man’s voice, who was standing at a distance from Luo Xiang at that time. Appeared to be a man in shining clothes like a high-ranking official, who was seen kneeling in front of Princess Wu Lan. His face looked worried, tired and anxious, his voice trembling and holding back the urge to cry.

Princess Wu Lan waved her hand for her men to help the middle-aged man to stand up from his knees.

.....

“Officer Feng what are you doing? You’re a governor, you shouldn’t kneel like this in front of this old lady. Get up first, tell me what really happened?”

Luo Xiang who was standing with his arms folded behind his waist only glanced briefly. It was only the domestic affairs of Wah Ye citizens who were still seeking Princess Wu Lan’s help. It was none of his business, he’d better look for Bai Ying instead.

“The man in black? What are they doing?”

But Wu Lan’s question stopped Luo Xiang, for some reason every time he heard the attacker in black clothes indirectly thought it was all related to their problem now.

Old Man Pai, the advisor of Princess Wu Lan who was the village elder approached the fancy-dressed man.

“Master Feng, what made that group target your house? This time if it’s related to bandits or anything, you know the princess has no right to interfere. After all, there are so many guards in the governor’s mansion, isn’t master Feng confident enough to face them?”

Master Feng, the man of fertile build with a clean face and very beautiful clothes looked at Princess Wu Lan for a moment, his hands clenched shakily.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, must have known what those people meant to kidnap my son. As a direct descendant of Minister Ke Lu, without wind or rain, those people came and killed many house guards just to kidnap my son. Servant, already know, one day this will definitely happen, how did Prince Wu Yi find out about my family lineage? My parents have changed names a long time ago, how can he still find us, oh Han’er”

Wu Lan widened her eyes. The old woman just realizes what the man meant, she looked at her adviser Mr Pai, and just as about to say something Luo Xiang walked in from the door.

“Excuse me for interrupting you, Princess Wu Lan, what do you mean by a direct descendant of Minister Ke Lu? Who do you mean?”

Seeing the Crown Prince enter the room all lowered their bodies to salute, including Governor Feng Xi who was directly a subordinate of YueYang Palace.

“Greetings Your Highness the Crown Prince”

Luo Xiang waved his hand, asking everyone to get up, and continued his questioning by looking at Wu Lan.

“Princess Wu Lan”

The old woman swallowed hard, she glanced at her advisor.

“Your Majesty, FengXi is the grandson of State Minister Wah Ye, Ke Lu, and his little son Feng Han was kidnapped last night by the black-clothed man who suddenly attacked the Governor’s residence, most likely those people are people from the Black Water Clan” explained, Pai.

Luo Xiang frowned, deep in thought.

“That fellow has gathered all the descendants of the pillars of the nation. Does that mean he has found the location of the Lost Palace? Does this mean that those people will also come to bring Lord Shin Ya to go there so that they can turn on the mechanism of the lost palace?”

Not yet finished saying all that, Luo Xiang’s eyes widened,

“Oh no, Ying Ying is with Shin Ya now, come on Bei we have to pick him up right away”

Without thinking twice Luo Xiang rushed out of the room with Bei Yau.

Wu Lan stood up from her seat, she held the hand of the young girl beside him, Me Ma.

“Me Ma, gather your men, open your eyes wide, Pai, please evacuate all the women and children to the safe room, we can’t take the risk that those people will come and suddenly attack, my feeling is getting worse”

Pai and MeMa lowered their heads.

“Yes, Princess!”

........

The sound of water flowing from the cliffs of the waterfall.

At the waterfall which is located not far from Lo Hua village. Some residents usually spend their time chatting with family, close friends and even lovers to enjoy the beauty of the waterfall which happens to be in the Lo Hua valley. A valley that out of the reach of humans which makes the place is untamed and beautiful. Tall plants of various shapes around the cliff where the waterfall is not so high but has clear and refreshing water.

Laughter sounded faint. Among the people, there’s Bai Ying, a Ya, ChenMing, and Shin Ya who spent their time there. The days in Lo Hua village were a bit boring without doing anything, and finally able to enjoy their vacation. Well, let’s just say this vacation, thought Bai Ying who took off his shoes and soaked his feet in the clear water and sat on the rocks with aYa beside him. While Shin Ya and Chen Ming played in the water with the other children on the creek.

“Wow, the air is so fresh, a Ya looks, there is a little rainbow there” Bai Ying exclaimed seeing the rainbow formed from a waterfall that fell on the water below, very beautiful.

“Yeah, that’s pretty Ying”

And Bai Ying couldn’t help but laugh at the sound of fighting between Shin Ya and Chen Ming in the water since Chen Ming still didn’t trust the man who he thought was a fake shaman.

“Move, I got here first!” Chen Ming exclaimed,

Shin Ya didn’t seem willing to move. The young man who didn’t mind getting all his clothes wet when he plunged into the water didn’t want to miss the chance to play with the adorable kids.

“This place is huge, can’t you divide it up a bit, young prince, it’s still quite spacious there.”

While everyone was enjoying the relaxed atmosphere, suddenly the sky turn a bit darkened, is it going to rain? Bai Ying thought as he looked up. But, it wasn’t raining, nothing but black smoke that seemed to be pouring down on them. Bai Ying’s eyes widened, he had a bad feeling.

“Oh no! Master Shin, Chen Ming get the kids out of the water!” cried Bai Ying.

Shin Ya opened his eyes wide, his eyes glare up finding something odd in his vision.

“Prince quickly take cover!” Shin Ya shouted pulling Chen Ming’s hand towards him. Several adults quickly grabbed their children up to the surface. While a Ya and Bai Ying had moved away from the rock and quickly took cover near the tree. The black smoke drifted lower and lower almost as high as their heads.

A Ya prepared the sword that was always on her waist, she also had a bad feeling.

People ran quickly seeing the strangeness of the clouds that seemed to be alive. Shin Ya looked at Bai Ying. This was not good, his inner eyes saw something bad. The black cloud had black eyes and a big mouth wide open as if it was ready to swallow anyone into it.

“Your Honour! Quick take cover!” he held Chen Ming’s hand and pushed him up from the water, and Chen Ming stretched out his hand to help the man up.

“Master Shin!”

Shin Ya was about to go up but the cloud quickly descended to cover their visibility.

“hahahahaha!”

There was loud laughter as the smoke covered the surroundings and the air seemed to be sucked in. A Ya couldn’t hold back and gripped the tree tightly, the sword in her hand fell to the ground.

“Cough, Ying, run, fast” She still had time to see Bai Ying’s worried face when she was forced to give up and her body fell limply unconscious.

“No a Ya!” Bai Ying’s eyes widened, and he held a Ya’s head which fell to the ground along with her limp body. From his place, he also witnessed Shin Ya and Chen Ming fell to the ground, it was poisonous smoke! Bai Ying tried to cover his nose, though he didn’t feel anything.

“Master Shin! Chen Ming!” he try to call them, but how could there be poisonous smoke in there, and that laughter, he recognized that laughter, it was Ye Mu?

“Hahahaha that’s easy, it’s too easy”

Sure enough, Ye Mu appeared from behind the slowly thinning smoke. After confirming that everyone had fallen, the girl with a pair of slender legs walked closer to Bai Ying and A Ya. There’s a lot of people dressed in black who also appeared behind her.
